    "content": " Thank you Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the protection. As Members are aware, the delay is because earlier on Hon. Opiyo Wandayi said these Principal Secretaries were only vetted yesterday. As Hon. Members are aware, 22 Principal Secretaries were vetted way before the Petition was filed before the High Court. After the striking out of the Petition filed by the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) by the High Court yesterday is when we made progress and Committees sat the whole day to consider the vetting process and table their reports. It is important to mention that yesterday, LSK submitted a further memorandum to Parliament. It raised issues on the nomination of the 51 persons for appointment as Principal Secretaries and Committees of this House have completed the vetting and approval exercise in the Plenary. It stated that they did not meet certain constitutional requirements of regional balance, persons with disabilities, gender balance and the youth."
